Lay The Past To Rest

I have been going over my life lately I suppose it is my age I think about when I was a child I stop at every stage. My mom and dad were good to me My dad was my favorite, it's true When he died I got closer to mom Has this ever happened to you? Choices I made were not the best Naïve is what I was, I suppose Jobs I had, people I met Those times came to a close. I met the man who would father My children, and I loved him so But he died, most of you know that It was truly a heavy blow. But you go on, what else can you do? Do the best in life that you can And later on in life I was lucky To find another good man. I know regrets are a waste of time For life, I think, is truly a test Let's not worry about the bad things We must lay the past to rest.
